Weather Festival goes On and Off in 2015

Nina Kraviz, Matthew Herbert and Derrick May will perform at the Paris festival's expanded third edition.

Paris's Weather Festival has announced plans to hold its main festival and satellite events over a two-week period in 2015.

The various satellite events, called Off, will run from May 27th through May 31st. The main festival, titled On, starts on June 4th and finishes on June 7th. The first week will see a string of "conferences, workshops, debates and master classes" taking place at various locations in Paris, including Arab World Institute and Gaîté Lyrique, organisers say. This will be supplemented by parties held at venues like Rex Club, Machine du Moulin Rouge, Batofar and Concrete. There will also be a revamped "Mini-Weather" programme designed to cater to children and families. That will take place on the banks of the Seine and admission to under 16s will be free.
